IRONt WORKS
IYIcimIm la Now Working
Again.
Though reported killed by an ex
plosion near Bun', Idaho, while work
ing in the Snake River mines, Charles
Pkaggs is alive' and. working, today.
Three weeks ago ' local members of
the Eagles' lodge received news , that
Skaggs had been instantly killed in a
mine ,, explosion. TeBterday B. F.
Wade . of this city, received a , letter
from the dead, so to speak; but perus
al of the eplstlo revealed the Jact that
the writer waa still on earth. . . : ' ,
It appears, that when the explosion
occurred, Skaggs received injuries that
forced him to the hospital for. three
weeks, but at no time was there any
indication of fatality. , Skaggs is now
working in the hotel at .Burt, ' and
asks that his premature obituary be
rptracted. , . His friends here will be
delighted to know that the "untimely
death", wrs not a fact.

Pendleton, Nov. 4. An echo of the
Sciiber bank failure at La Grande was
heard this morning In the supreme
court when J. D. Slater, representing
the defunct bank and Its cashier, and
Leroy Lomax of Portland, representing
the respondent, S.' 8. Booth of La
Grande, argued the appeal from the
district court of that district from a
verdict given Booth on an action for
an accounting brought by him a cou
ple of years ago. ' " '.'
Booth had deposited certain sums
with Scrlber and his bank and ' al
though a portion of the amount was
returned to him the account was kept
open and never fully satisfied. ' Ac
cording to Mr. Lomax, in the original
trial of the case, It developed that cer
tain certificates of deposit left with
the bank by Booth had been fraudu-1
lently endorsed by Scrlber, and ' the
money used by him, but little attention
was paid to the matter at the time.

Ontario; Ore., Nov. 4. Considerable
excitement prevails In Ontario and vi
cinity on account of the fact that; a
scum of oil is contlnlially vlslbfo! on
the water coming from the deep well
now being drilled here.' Drilling was
begun some three weeks ago, and the
well Is now down about 400 feet,
Some delay was experienced for 10
days or more by reason t a break in
the casing when thewell was down
about 130 feet. The nifflculty was
overcome a few days . ago, however,
and the drill is now progressing at the
rate of about 75 feet a day. ; .'
One thing has already been estab
llRhed, and that Is that the shale here
carries oil. That means that If a sand
Is found below the shale oil will be
found in great quantities, as a sand
bed ia necessary to retain the oil which
flows In the shale. ' It is now conld-
. ered without question that there is oil
,in this vicinity; whether it is directly
beneath the drill now In operation is
of course, a matter of speculation, but
the drillers, who are experienced men
from the California and Pennsylvania
field, feel very much encouraged. They
say the shale is more, oily than any
they ever worked in, and that the inr
dications are very good.
, A considerable pressure of gas has
been encountered. The careless light
ing of a match near the well a few
days ago resulted i in an explosion
which burned several bystanders, and
demonstrates that the well may be ex
pected to yield a strong to-fr of gas,
even if the oil is not forthcoming.
Postmaster Sprol was one of the men
who suffered from the, explosion, his
right ear being severely-buned. ' The
presence of gas in this vicinity has
long oeen a matter of certainty. A, F.
Boyer has for seven years heated and
lighted his dwelling with gas piped
from a deep well drilled on his land.
It will now be a matter of but a short
time until some definite knowledge is
gained concerning what lies beneath
the oil shale now being pierced. ,
